halalfoodhunt has launched a mobile application for their loyalty programme subscribers to exercise their membership digitally on both Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

With this launch, the FRIENDS with halalfoodhunt.com Rewards Card programme will be referred to as the FRIENDS Pass. Features of the first stage include enabling FRIENDS of halalfoodhunt to exercise their rewards in the forms of discounts at over 160 halal places around Singapore and purchasing the FRIENDS Pass immediately through the app. The app’s function will be expanded and released in stages.

“We worked on this app because a lot of our FRIENDS of halalfoodhunt were asking us for it. Sometimes they misplaced their cards, or they would forget to bring it with them. They also wanted a faster way to get the card. With this app, our FRIENDS will be able to enjoy rewards immediately upon purchase,” said Managing Director of halalfoodhunt, Jumaiyah Mahathir.

All FRIENDS Passholders will still receive a physical card through their mail and they are still able to exercise their rewards via the app or the card.

Collaterals at over 160 participating merchants of halalfoodhunt.com have also been updated to work with the app.

Donate to Free Food for All's Efforts in Providing Free Halal Meals to the Needy

While we are enjoying the holidays and spending time with our families and loved ones, spare a thought to the needy and share your blessings with Free Food for All (FFFA) to support their effort in providing free halal meals to those in need. Proceeds will be channeled to FFFA's community driven programme to provide halal meals to the needy in Singapore as well as neighbouring countries afflicted by extreme poverty.

This month, Free Food for All will be channeling extra funds to villages in Bangladesh and Malang. The details of distribution are as below:

In Bangladesh, it will be winter and while they need so many other resources, we felt that at the basic minimum we would provide them a warm meal on one particular Friday.

Similarly, we will distribute an equivalent amount of food to a village in Indonesia, close to Malang. ​The inhabitants of the village lives about 3 hours from Surabaya and are plagued with a hard life with minimal earnings.
